Different sigs for different accounts? (outlook XP)

Hi. I've finally decided it time I try to do something about the signatures going out in my emails. Currently, it just puts my ace-installer.com signature on all emails, but I just can't seem to work out how I would distinguish the signatures for each email account (i.e one for linkssql.net, and another for ace-installer.com).

Has anyone had any experience with this?

I've been using;

Tools > Options > Mail Format > Signatures

TIA

Good question, Andy.

I don't think it's possible to do what you want in Outlook...found the following thread:

You may be able to fnd an Outlook "add-on" on the Net, might try searching WebAttack.com (http://webattack.com/) first.

Try looking through:

The not so friendly work around is to create different Outlook "Identities", which you can attach different signatures to, but cumbersome to say the least, since you'd have to login separately to access these accounts.

Buh Bye!

hm... my version of Outlook Express lets me assign a different signature to each of my addresses, or assign a signature as default when a signature isn't defined for the address. I don't see why this wouldn't be in Outlook XP. I'm not at my PC, but I think it's at: tools->options->signatures (in the main window, not the create message window). use "advanced" to assign the different signatures to different addresses.

Thats why I'm so confused. I used to be a Outlook Express 5 user, snd it let me do this. Now that I have gone to Outlook XP (2002), it won't let me :(

The only reason I am keeping to Outlook XP, is cos it has the rules checking, which is great for my email accounts where they don't have spam filters.
